I think Art is backing off now, he was in danger of becoming a troll. the weird rear is due to the perspective of the shot of the magazine cover. I corrected for it here.
Stupid AW. I call shenanigans on their front cover. I suspected bad Photoshopping and this other image confirms it. Badly stretched grille on the freakin' cover (image on the left). I could've fixed that correctly in my sleep.
I think my rear overhang is only off a little, but my front interpretation was mis-unperspectivised a little wrong. Nothing wrong with less front overhang, though. This side view from AW was an attempt to complete the folded in part of the magazine, and my camera lens may be different and the...
clean ups and comparisons.
PS. ARRRRT. Please. Not mine. I know a real photo when I see one. Did you not see the studio screencap Topnotch posted. END. OF. DISCUSSION.
Interesting concept, decent excecution, great choice for a class project. Not so great choices for the splash image and configurator. I'd have use the burnout image as the splash image. And any of the studio-lit beauty shots as the configurator. If he hadn't gone to the trouble of cropping out...
The coda to the "Rustang" story is that I was driving home last April and pulled alongside an old Mustang. It looked sooo familiar. I whipped out my phone and took this picture. Pretty close, no rust or steel rim, though. Even has primer overspray on the door.
From that retouch, I came up with the idea to age a variety of "new" cars for a possible calendar. I came up with and did these two and never did any other. The Viper was one where I scanned the brochure again, but shot all the other composite images. The Prowler was shot at a dealer's house who...
While things are a bit slow, and no new teaser from Ford yet, I thought I'd share a little history on my Mustang obsession.
First car I drove was a 1966 green Mustang. I was 13. My mom let me drive it out in the country after my sister was done with a bit of driving on her temporary license...
The taillight assembly is a one piece from the lip to the trunk seam. It will most likely be black for reasons given above. Body color between them would not look good, giving the awesome taillights a raccoon look. The speculation is the upper trim levels will have a smoke chrome pony, which...
The blacked out panel is a must. the one-piece unit the louvered taillights project out of needs to be black for the same reason the inside of the '05 headlights couldn't be body colored: you'd have to custom paint or color-mould each one to the color of the car. The same goes for the '15...
